Gertrude Abercrombie: The Whole World Is A Mystery

Carnegie Museum of Art 
Friday, January 31, 2025
6 – 9 p.m. 

Gertrude Abercrombie (American, 1909–1977) was a critical figure in the midcentury Chicago art scene and a creative force who, from the 1930s until her death in 1977, produced enigmatic paintings populated with objects and figures of personal significance. With a deft hand, a concise symbolic vocabulary, and a restrained palette, she created potent images that speak to her mercurial nature and her evolving psychology as an artist.
